Hey, just something I was wondering about transformers.
We know that the transformer has two coils, the primary and the secondary which are not interconnected so the transmission of power comes from the rapidly changing magnetic field right...... well lets suppose there is no load at the output of the transformer and you have the normal 127V AC @ 60Hz connected to input, since the coil is 'electrically common', won't this be a geniune short circuit? causing overheat?
